Latent Cluster Analysis for Vision-Language-Action Models

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 2, 2026 · UTC

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) Models are increasingly used in robotics for their ability to ground language and perception into action, yet the internal representations driving their behaviour remain poorly understood. We propose LAVLA, a framework for latent cluster analysis of VLA models, and conduct a layer-wise study of the state-of-the-art GR00T N1.5 model, with particular focus on its action decoder. To better characterise the latent space during action diffusion, we introduce a cross-attention-based embedding-weighting method that amplifies relevant features while suppressing less inform
